If any of you like Les Mis / Frank Wildhorn you will love a new musical called Witchfinder. Find out more at www.witchfinder.co.uk . It's a powerful and moving story and has loads of great memorable tunes. Look up the CD on www.dresscircle.co.uk and read the (impartial!) reviews.

Yes was great to hear it on EP. The number they played was a slightly weird choice as it's nowhere near the strongest number in the show! I saw this show in Manchester in April. It is awesome...and I know a lot of new shows claim to be, but this is!

Not being funny Greycell, but lumping the execrable Wildhorn with Les Mis is a bit of a stretch!  sad.gif

I heard the song on Radio 2 on Sunday and thought it was more "Wicked" then Les Mis

Ok, I was just trying to put it in a ball park! Let's just say it's not My Fair Lady or Avenue Q (not that there's anything wrong with those..). There are samples on the website if you want to choose a ball park!

Thought the music was fantastic. Wouuld be brill to hear sone of the songs sung by some  theatrical heavyweights. Would get a ticket to see it if the opportunity arose.
